On Friday afternoon, the Wydad Athletic Club embarked on a journey to the city of Marrakech, gearing up for their upcoming match against the Kawkab Marrakech. This fixture marks the 16th round of the professional league and is set to showcase the competitive spirit of both teams. The red team's delegation departed from Casablanca by bus after conducting their final training session at the Mohammed Benjloun Complex. Unfortunately, the coaching staff will be without key players Hamza El Hanouri, Mohamed Amin Abu Fath, and Walid Al-Sabbar, all sidelined due to injuries.
The highly anticipated match between Wydad and Kawkab is scheduled for tomorrow, Saturday, at the Grand Stadium in Marrakech, kicking off at 8 PM (GMT+1). As the second half of the professional league begins, the race for the title intensifies alongside the battle for survival, promising an exhilarating encounter.
In an effort to boost attendance, financial incentives have been introduced for this summit clash, which is expected to draw significant interest from both fan bases. Kawkab Marrakech has increased the allocation for Wydad supporters to 5,000 tickets, facilitating a vibrant atmosphere for the match.
Additionally, the Kawkab team has set the ticket price at 60 dirhams, reserving 3,000 tickets specifically for Wydad fans, ensuring that they can support their team in full force. This match also signals the anticipated return of players Ziyech and Bouchta to the Wydad lineup, bolstering their chances.
In light of recent developments, Kawkab Marrakech has referred coach Dmii to the Ethics Committee just four days before the pivotal clash with Wydad, following a statement from President Hanifa. As we look forward to this exciting matchup, the competitive edge and recent performances against Moroccan clubs, particularly Sundowns, set the stage for a thrilling encounter.
